A Small Morning Habit

Mia works in a busy office. Every morning, she used to check her phone before getting out of bed. She often felt tired before her day even began.

Last month, she tried something different. She put a glass of water beside her bed and left her phone in the kitchen. After waking up, she drank the water and read two pages of a book. The whole routine took ten minutes.

Mia still has difficult days, but she feels calmer in the morning. She does not try to change everything at once. For her, a small habit is easier to keep than a big promise.
